  1. Hi, there is no obvious question :wink:

     

    It did not boot from another disk because i did not touch it. Furthermore, when unattach the new disk it starts nicely again.

     

    Anyway, I plug the new disk to my laptop. Have a look and put back on the ESXI. I also replace SATA cable and voilà ! It starts with the new disk !

     

    I am reparing the raid..It should be fine now.

     

    Thanks anyway :smile:

  2. Hi there,

     

    I have an issue when trying to add a new disk (from rma). As usual, after receiving it, i create vmdk from esxi

     

    #vmkfstools -z /vmfs/devices/disks/t10.ATA_____WDC_WD40EFRX2D68N32N0_________________________WD2DWCC7K5NPxxxx /vmfs/vo
    lumes/SSD_dataStore/RDM/4To_WD2DWCC7K5xxxx.vmd
    

     

    I added an existing hard disk from the vm. When i start,i have nothing (no ssh, no ping, no web access). Event after 20 minutes

     

    If I delete the new disk, everything is working fine. Unfortunately, I seems no recording solething on the log. I attach the log here

     

    Not sure to help but the new one isn't look the same as these others.

     

    New disk: WDC_WD40EFRX2D68N32N0

    others disk (2 disks):WDC_WD40EFRX2D68WT0N0

     

    What do you thing?

  3. Hi guys,

     

    I have my xpenology DSM 5.2-5592 Update 4 running on ESXI 5.x with 3 disks in a LUN (RDM). After some manual reboot (xpenology and esxi), the xpenology does not want to power on.

     

    The log en ESXi said:

    Cannot open the disk '/vmfs/volumes/.../4To_WD40EFRX2D68WT0N0.vmdk' or one of the snapshot disks it depends on. 19 (No such device)

     

    This disk still exist "...T0N0.vmdk":

     

    /vmfs/volumes/54b2b2dd-e3dc7654-xxyy-fcaa14227183/RDM # ls -al

    total 1032

    When i check on the Xpenology configuration, the disk 2 seems NOT to be part of the LUN. The disk 3 and 4 are in a LUN. I have deleted it and try to re add but esxi does not recognize the file "4To_WD40EFRX2D68WT0N0.vmdk".

     

    Anyway, the disk is deleted and i could boot up in a degraded volume

     

    I will check this disk on the bios tomorrow. But what do you think?

  4. As tu configurer un raid au niveau du controleur de ta carte mère ?

    Bonjour,

     

    J'ai 3 disques durs (1 de 250Go, et 2 de 2To). Très honnêtement je ne m'en rappelle plus^^ mais j'ai du mettre la conf SATA en AHCI je crois. Le RAID du DSM est directement gérer par DSM car mes disques sont reliés en RDM d'un point de vue VMWare.

    Pareil pour moi, je l'ai ai mis en rdm. Par contre, je n'ai pas encore changé l'adresse mac. Est-ce nécessaire ? Quel serait l'utilité à part utiliser le service Quick connect?

  5. on ne sait jamais ce que l'avenir nous réserve et qui peut le plus peut le moins donc avoir ESXi avec 1 VM est certe inutile en l'état, mais au moins cela te permet d'avoir une base pour ensuite en rajouter d'autres. Chez moi par exemple, j'ai XPenology + Windows 10 + CentOS. Mais au début je n'avais que Xpenology en natif et puis mes besoins ont vite grandi!

    Bonsoir, Je suppose que vous attaquez les vm seulement via vsphere client ? Pas de possibilité d'avoir un écran+clavier +souris pour chaque vm ?

    Je n'ai pas encore osé de m'aventurer sur ce terrain car très peu de retour...

  6. Hey

     

    I replaced my I3 4340 to I5-4570T. I have the feature VT-D and I can see devices available to direct patch.

     

    One of my friend (vmware expert) said RDM is useless for recent esxi. I Will remove my config according to this advice.

  7. Hi,

     

    Glad you took same hardware :smile:

     

    I have configured the RDM with the vmkfstools tool. Xpenology should manage directly the disk. Weirdly, i have checked the advanced settings and see the pass through is not supported too... How can we confirm xpenology have all access to the disk? On Storage tab, I can not test the SMART of my disks :s

     

    Hi,

     

    Check again the BIOS, i do not see the VT-d option which is supposed to display right under the Intel Virtualization Technology. Probably the reason on ESXI, the DirectPath is not supported.

     

    My BIOS is on the lastest one (F4). Someone can confirm he has the option VT-d ??

  9. As you know I want to run esxi and xpenology, Mac OS, Windows as virtual.

     

    To have access to the screen of the mac os for sample, I can specify one particular video output like DVI?

     

    To want to have access one vm via screen, keyboard and mouse only.

  10. Hey,

     

    The GA-H77N-WIFI has two nic, the Atheros AR8161 and Intel I217-V. EXSI does not have these drivers and need to be added with ESXI customizer.

     

    I followed:

    http://www.techygeekshome.co.uk/2014/04 ... ivers.html

    and https://communities.vmware.com/thread/4 ... 0&tstart=0

     

    The drivers are net-alx-2.0.0.6b.x86_64.vib and net-e1000e-2.3.2.x86_64.vib

     

    NB: I added one by one.

    NB2: ESXI will ask you to update the NIC intel I217-V.

     

    To be continued... :smile:

  11. Hi,

     

    Should receive my MB this week and will go to install it. I will do a mix of the two guide:

     

    [Guide] Up and running with ESXI and XPEenology: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=3564

    and

    [Guide] Installing Synology DSM on Non Synology Hardware - Interactive Guide (ESXI method)

    http://cyanlabs.net/Thread-Installing-S ... tive-Guide

     

    All I want is:

    * Booting ESXI on USB Stick 16Go

    * SSD 512Go for storing virtual machines (Xpenology, mac os x)

    * 3 x WD RED 4To for data-drive

     

    I have downloaded ESXI 5.5 update 1 (latest available).

     

    Regarding the data-drive, as far as i know is we need to create RDM (Raw Device Mapping) for these 3 WD Red before adding them on Xpenology. May I right ?

  12. Seems working nicely.

     

    Here is my new nas :

     

    Fractal Design NODE 304

    Gygabyte GA-H97N-Wifi

    ocz vertex 4 512go

    3 WD red 4TO

    Seasonic G-450

     

    Half device have been bought in second hand and I have got lucky for some device, the guy wanted to sell quickly [emoji4]

     

    Anyway I will follow the guide of one of the guy here to run exsi + virtual machines on ssd + data store on we red.

     

    I should start middle of next week. By the way should I downloade latest nanoboot updated and dsm updated avaliable or should I take the main image and then update to the latest one?
